I may not be watching BBC News at the moment but I can guess what certain reporters are up in their broadcasts from their tweets - especially when they link to their own BBC One news reporting.

PJ Media: If your grocery bills continue to frustrate you, you’re not alone. The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) released its report on worldwide food prices for February, and prices hit a record high last month. The February FAO Food Price Index (FFPI) reached a new high of 140.7 points, which reflects an increase of 3.9% over January and a whopping 20.7% over this time last year. The FFPI serves as a “measure of the monthly change in international prices of a basket of food commodities,” notes the FAO. This month’s increase was largely due to “lar... read more

Would A ‘Cold’ War Be The Best News Around?

Janssen Vs Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccines: A Clear Winner In Reduced Hospitalizations
COVID-19 vaccines have shown to be effective at preventing vaccines but the big win for public health is reduced effects if you get it anyway. If you don't have co-morbidities your relative risk is very low but if you do have them, every precaution is worth taking. The vaccines come in many forms but two of note are the Janssen COVID-19 vaccine (Ad26.COV2.S) and Pfizer-BioNTech (BNT162b2), distinct because Janssen only requires one dose. And the latter made "mRNA" part of the cultural lexicon. Which one led to fewer hospitalizations? They were both outstanding but there is a winn... read more

Prices and Profits Continue For Iraq’s Oil Industry
Iraq’s oil exports recovered from a slight dip in January 2022. Petroleum prices also continued to rise driven by fears over the Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. In February Iraq exported an average of 3.314 million barrels a day. That was up from 3.203 million in January. Iraq’s petroleum sales have been steadily rising as its production quota has been increased under the OPEC+ agreement. That made February’s mark the highest since April 2020. Iraq has also benefited from tensions over the world energy market now being driven by the war in the Ukraine. That has led prices to... read more

What Putin’s Invasion Means for Foreign Policy Realism
*Rand Paul* *Russia-Ukraine War, Europe* While I will hope for saner minds without the bloodshed, I fear Ukraine has a long and violent road ahead. Realism in foreign policy means that tactics and strategy change as the facts on the ground change. The best tools for deterring Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine are less relevant now that Russia has invaded. Prior to Putin’s invasion, sanctions and threats of an embargo were levers to deter his ambition. Many sanctions were levied, including sanctions on the Nord Stream II pipeline from Russia to Germany. Absent an invasion, man... read more

Is the Biden administration risking nuclear war in the Middle East?
It seems that the pressure is on to wrap up a new nuclear agreement with Iran. Some reports suggest that agreement on all the issues is close, but there are still major stumbling-blocks to be overcome. The trouble is, Iran is unashamedly, unapologetically and irrevocably (under its present religious rulership) committed to the destruction of Israel. Israel is known to have nuclear weapons; therefore, the Iranian government is almost certainly committed to developing its own nukes in order to counter that threat. There's been abundant evidence to that effect in recent years,... read more
